Why have people been led to believe that the RX480 isn't

>>58567624
because it isn't

>>58567702
How so? The 290X was intended to be a 4k card and the 480 is more powerful.

>>58567743
The 290x sucks at 4k too you nitwit.

>>58567769
It's enough to play 4k tho.

>>58567793
If you like 30fps gaming

uhhhhhhh. if a held a gun to your head and made you choose gtx 460 or rx480. whichin you choosin?

>>58567895
What does that have to do with it being good at 4k gaming?

>>58567876
No, you can get 60fps at 4k on most games.

I still game on a 750 ti, gayming is for faggots though and 99percent of games you want to play are older and work on anything

>>58567923
>lowest quality
No thanks.

>>58567952
Aside from AA (which isn't needed), everything maxed out.

>>58568002
do you have a single benchmark to back that up you shitnugget?

>>58567942
>i still game
>gayming is for faggots
what a faggot

>>58568048
I'm actually working on them right now. Several games are averaging at least 60.

>>58567624
My GTX 1080 at 2,012mhz isn't even able to hit 4K 60fps at high+ settings in newer games.
Even fucking overwatch at 4K runs 55fps

A 480 is a 1080p GPU possibly med settings 1440P

>>58568086
Are you turning AA off?

>>58567743
290x was never intended for 4k. It came out at a time when 1080p max settings at stable 60fps was delegated to the high end. It couldn't even do 1440p max 60 in a lot of games in its prime.
Even my fury struggles to get above 30fps at 4k in new games. In fact I think even the 1080 has trouble keeping a solid 60 in some games at 4k.

>>58567743
no it fucking wasn't
I don't know where you got your information

it could only do 12 fps at 4k on crysis 3

As a r9 fury owner I can tell you, you're a retard. Even I can't play 4k 60fps. There is no way a 290x is doing it.

>>58568092
Well yes
people don't seem to realize how demanding 4K really is.

>>58567624
>but muh ps4 pro with rx 480 can play games at upscaled 4k 30 fps so it must be a 4k capable gpu r-right

>>>/v/

>>58568641
I have a 1600x900 monitor, so I can't get to 4k with 200% VSR, but I can get to 3200x1800 and Doom, CoD IW, and Overwatch all ran at 60+ with AA off.

Once I set in a good OC, I don't see how 4k is impossible on a 480.

>>58568786
The PS4 pro is using polaris 11, not polaris 10. The 480 is significantly more powerful.

>>58567876
30fps is more than enough

>>58567624
Because it isn't if you want to run on good settings.

>>58567923
>>58568002
Most games were made before 2010.

>Silky smooth 30 fps ultra details gaming
or
>60 fps at medium/low details so you can see those pixelated shitty quality shadows and effect in all their glory on your 4k monitor!

It's absolutely retarded to sacrifice details in order to play on higher resolutions, I can understand if its only slightly noticeable like dropping shadows from ultra to high but downgrading shit like LOD or foliage is plain retardation. Both 480 RX and 290X aren't capable of 4k gaming.

>>58569956
>3200x1080

That's not a real 4K anon...

>>58567624
Because people who want to play in 4k want more than 30fps and medium settings

>>58571911
1800* muh bad. Also AA is still needed to some degree. 2XMSAA is still gonna be noticeable. Mostly because you would usually go for larger monitor in order to use 4K and larger monitor means lower pixel density.

>>58568073
What about games released after 2010?

>RX480
>4k
I can't get solid 60fps@1440p on witcher even with a 1080 GTX

>>58568641
>people don't seem to realize how demanding 4K really is.
they do, but they're paid shills who trick idiots into thinking these gpus can game at high res

480 barely runs last years games at 1080p
anything above that it's a stutterfest

>>58568073

Benchmarks please. My 1080s in sli just about handle all in 4k

>>58567743
Every top end card since Hawaii and Maxwell have been touted as 4K cards when used in x-fire/SLI, doesn't mean it's necessarily true

>>58567624
why would you want 4K gaming?
